With manufacturer’s having already announced their 2018 lineups, most are trying to relax as the year winds down. But they aren’t staying quiet.

The last week has been awash with news of everything from automakers teasing new concepts, to others conducting grandiose marketing stunts — including Nissan’s promotion of “Gran Turismo Sport.” Plus, with the end of October in sight, the industry is turning its attention to the aftermarket culture in preparation for SEMA Show.

Here are three stories that made waves throughout the automotive world this week:

Tuning Company Bisimoto Makes Hyundai Ioniq Ridiculously Efficient For SEMA
Hyundai has again partnered with Bisimoto Engineering for the 2017 SEMA Show.

Bisimoto built a special Hyundai Ioniq, dubbed the HyperEconiq, for this year’s show in Las Vegas that features wholesale changes everywhere you look. The result is a car that’s much lighter, more aerodynamic and can achieve 80 mpg, compared to 58 mpg in the standard Ioniq.

A lot of the HyperEconiq’s weight reduction comes from Bisimoto’s extensive use of lightweight materials, including carbon fiber wheels from Carbon Revolution.
